# noredink-ui
|
|
|
|
UI widgets we use.
|
|
|
|
## Versioning policy
|
|
|
|
We try to avoid breaking changes and the associated major version bumps in this package. The reason for that is to avoid the following scenario:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
x 4.6.0: Adding RadioButton widget
|
|
|
|
|
x 5.0.0: Breaking change in the TextArea widget
|
|
|
|
|
x 5.0.1: Styling fix in the Checkbox widget
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Suppose you just released version `5.0.1`, a small styling fix in the checkbox widget, for a story you're working on. If the project you're working in currently pulls in `noredink-ui` at version `4.x`, then getting to your styling fix means pulling in a new major version of `noredink-ui`. This breaks all `TextArea` widgets across the project, so those will need to be fixed before you can do anything else, potentially a big effort.
|
|
|
|
To prevent these big Yaks from suddenly showing up in seemingly trivial tasks we prefer to avoid breaking changes in the package. Instead when we need to make a breaking change in a widget, we create a new module for it `Nri.Ui.MyWidget.VX`. Similarly, when we build custom elements in JavaScript we create a file `lib/MyWidget/VX.js` and define a custom element `nri-mywidget-vX`.
|
|
|
|
We should change this process if we feel it's not working for us!
|
|
|
|
## Moving Widgets to `noredink-ui`
|
|
|
|
If you are moving in a widget from the monolith:
|
|
- Copy the contents of `Nri.SomeModule` and its tests to `Nri.Ui.SomeModule.V1` in `noredink-ui`
|
|
- Publish!
|
|
- If you feel confident upgrading pre-existing usages of the widget, switch over to it everywhere!
|
|
- If the new version introduces big changes and you'd rather keep the old one around for now, rename `Nri.SomeModule` to `Nri.DEPRECATEDSomeModule` in the monolith and start using `Nri.Ui.SomeModule.V1` where you need it
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Phasing out old versions
|
|
|
|
Our goal is to gradually move to the newest version of each widget, and remove the old versions when they are no longer used.
|
|
|
|
This means:
|
|
- We should avoid introducing new references to old versions of a widget
|
|
- When touching code that uses a widget, prefer upgrading to the latest version
|
|
- If you introduce a new version of a widget, please consider taking the time to upgrade all previous usages
|
|
- If for some reason this isn't feasible, create a story in your team's backlog so that you can prioritize it separately without disrupting your current work
|
|
- You can delete an old version of a widget when there are no usages left
|
|
- Currently, `noredink-ui` is used by the monolith, CCS and tutorials
|
|
- Note: this will be a major version bump, so you may want to batch deletions together
|

## Examples
|
|
|
|
This repo contains an app showcasing all of these UI widgets.
|
|
|
|
To see them locally:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
script/develop.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you'd like to test your widget in the monolith before publishing, run `script/test-elm-package.py ../path_to_this_repo` from the monolith's directory.
|
|
|
|
## Tests
|
|
|
|
Run tests with
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
make test
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### CI (Travis)
|
|
|
|
Travis will run `make ci` to verify everything looks good.
|
|
You can run this locally to catch errors before you push!
|
|
|
|
## Deploying
|
|
|
|
Once your PR is merged, you can publish `master` as a new version:
|
|
|
|
Run the following to bump && publish the version in `elm.json`:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
elm bump
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Commit and push your changes in a PR. Once it's approved and merged,
|
|
then:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
git tag -a 5.10.0 -m "release version 5.10.0"
|
|
git push origin 5.10.0
|
|
elm publish
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can also add a tag in https://github.com/NoRedInk/noredink-ui/releases/new if you want to add more detail.
|
|
|
|
Once you've published, you should see the latest version at <https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/NoRedInk/noredink-ui/>.
